This Sunday is Mother’s Day, and in a world that often blurs, diminishes, or outright attacks what it means to be a woman and a mother, I can’t think of a better time to re-air one of the most powerful conversations I’ve ever had on The Britt Mayer Show:Britt sits down with Lisa Bevere, NYT best-selling author and co-founder of Messenger International, to explore the vital roles of WOMEN, faith and family in today's culture. This conversation is like a warm cup of strong coffee: Britt & Lisa discuss the challenges mothers face, the importance of clarity in parenting, and the need for fierce femininity in a world that often undermines traditional values. The dialogue emphasizes the significance of protecting children from harmful ideologies, the balance of truth and love in conversations, and the biblical role of women as nurturers and guides for the next generation.

Animal Farm By Angel Studios | Movie Review: How Does It Compare to Orwell’s Classic?Is the new CGI Animal Farm adaptation a faithful warning against tyranny… or a watered-down, kid-friendly slop that misses Orwell’s point entirely?In this "under 15" bonus episode of The Britt Mayer Show, we break down the new 2026 animated film — star-studded voices, chaotic humor, and all. We compare it directly to George Orwell’s powerful 1945 novella: the Russian Revolution allegory, the corruption of Animalism, Napoleon (Stalin), Snowball (Trotsky), the betrayal of the working animals, and that chilling final line: “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”From the book’s sharp anti-totalitarian satire to the movie’s potty jokes, slapstick, and softened edges — we cover the major differences, what works, what fails, and why the original still hits harder today.Drop your thoughts below: Worth watching with the kids, or stick to the novella?Help us keep bringing you the unfiltered stories that matter:👉 Like if you value real literary analysis over Hollywood dilutions👉 Subscribe & hit the bell for more culture, politics, faith & health from a biblical, conservative mom’s worldview👉 Share this with friends who love classic literature and want honest takes on modern adaptations!Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, X & YouTube.

I felt as though I had been tossed in a stormy ocean of uncertainty with no life jacket or  lifeboat in sight. I didn’t know where to find answers to my questions, or if answers existed at all. Did I have to accept it all on some kind of blind faith?  I began to investigate my faith intellectually—I took seminary classes and read everything I could get my hands on. This began my  journey from  unreasoned doubt into a vibrant, rational, and informed faith.Check out Alisa's book 'Another Gospel' and its student edition: https://alisachilders.com/another-gospel/This Episode is Brought to You By:We Heart Nutrition.
